Abstract
The process of Tb2Hf2O7 nanocrystals formation upon annealing to 1600°C was investigated by means of X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy combined with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and pair distribution function (PDF) analysis. The structure ordering and the growth of nanocrystals upon annealing were estimated independently from XRD patterns and PDF. The probable content of Tb4+ ions in Tb2Hf2O7 was estimated from XANES. All studies indicate a high disorder and a large number of local structure defects in Tb2Hf2O7 pyrochlore oxide.
